Nigerian Security Forces Execute Unarmed Civilians [Video]

Following clashes between the police and members of Boko Haram, a group that was calling for the enforcement of Islamic law across Nigeria, there became a wide circulation of Nigerian security forces and many reports started to stir of killings at the hands of the forces last year.

Although the news seemed to be kept under wraps, Al Jazeera was able to capture footage of particular incidents in the country where the forces seems to be ordering civilians to lay on the ground before being executed.

There have been reports by human rights groups that many of those that were killed were unarmed civilians, which is given confirmation from the footage released.
